Time 1h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 bunch fresh parsley
1 bunch fresh cilantro
1 to 2 cloves garlic
1 large red onion, halved and sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 pound chuck or top round steak (London broil)
3 poblano peppers, seeded and cut into strips
1/4 cup lager beer
8 8-inch flour tortillas
Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine the parsley and cilantro (leaves and stems), garlic, half of the sliced onion, 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, vinegar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 1/2 cup olive oil in a food processor; blend into a thick and smooth chimichurri sauce. Pierce both sides of the steak with a fork several times; place in a resealable plastic bag and add half of the sauce. Seal the bag and turn to coat the steak; refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Cover and reserve the remaining sauce.
  • Preheat a grill to medium-high. Remove the steak from the bag (discard the bag of sauce); season with salt and pepper and grill until medium-rare, about 6 minutes per side. Let rest, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the peppers and the remaining sliced onion half; season with salt and pepper. Saute until the vegetables are softened and caramelized around the edges, about 8 minutes. Add the beer, cover and cook until the peppers are tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Warm the tortillas on the grill. Thinly slice the steak on the bias; divide among the tortillas along with the peppers and onions. Thin the reserved chimichurri sauce with the remaining 1 tablespoon lemon juice; drizzle over the fajitas. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your fajitas will be. Look for flank steak that is well-marinated and has a nice marbling of fat.
  • Cook the steak over high heat. This will help to create a nice sear on the outside of the steak, while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Don't overcook the steak. Flank steak is a thin cut of meat, so it cooks quickly. Overcooking it will make it tough and chewy.
  • Slice the steak against the grain. This will help to make the steak more tender.
  • Serve the fajitas immediately with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include grilled vegetables, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Flank steak fajitas are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover steak, and they can be easily customized to your liking. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and healthy meal on the table in no time.
